favorite drummers?

sorceron · February 22nd, 2006, 08:44 PM

i like talking about drummers for some reason. what are you peoples favorite drummers right now?

ive always been into nick barker and hellhammer. i like how both those guys play whats right for the part instead of just mindless shred.

Husker · February 22nd, 2006, 08:52 PM

Fenriz is probably my favorite right now, since I'm listening to a lot of darkthrone but I also am digging Steve Smith, the guy is a god of drums, can play metal, jazz, fusion, anything.

If you're into fusion, check out Vital Tech Tones, Steve Smith plays drums on it.

Marco Minnemann
Henry Ranta

bunch more

The guy from Scarve is a maniac... Derek Roddy has nothing on him. But my all-time favourite drummer is Mike Mangini. Not only does he have the world record on most single strokes by hands per minute (1205 if i recall correctly, almost 20 strokes a second...), but he seems to have all his limbs working totally independent of each other. He also does crazy one hand tremolos on both hands and seems to be completely hermadextric too. In addition to that, he's also one of the most tasteful and versatile drummers on any scene.

Btw. Just listening to the songs on your myspace page, sounds really good! I have to get my hands on some kinda cd of yours.

Brad Riffs · February 23rd, 2006, 12:35 AM

Dirk Verbeuren is the dude from Scarve, Im sure you know but he also plays in Soilwork. He is quite the amazing drummer.

sorceron · February 23rd, 2006, 12:40 AM

yea Mike Mangini is sick. unreal.

i like Asgeir's drumming alot.

btw thanks dude! no cd out yet. i can send you a cdr with some songs burn on it sometime though.

Fuck... I can never remember his last name. He doesn't sound as cool in Soilwork, he does some crazy shit there too but he must be holding back a lot there.

Asgeir is good too. Not the most insane or wildest drummer but very stylish and stable. I heard he played a tour for Testament once.

We could make a switch, mail me at matti@crimsonlotus.org!

Brad Riffs · February 23rd, 2006, 01:17 AM

Yea, Dirk's Scarve stuff is much better. I prefered Henry's work with Soilwork.

yeh im gunna have to agree with you there Ken. Nick is an amazing drummer, his double bass and blastbeats are incredibly fast but still played with such presicion.

02murlam · February 23rd, 2006, 06:49 AM

Dave Mackintosh from dragonforce is great!

TrailofDeath · February 23rd, 2006, 06:07 PM

Flo Mounier from Cryptopsy is my fav. at the moment. His style is crazy, definately a badass!

EmbersAstray83 · February 23rd, 2006, 07:00 PM

Janne from The Crown is fucking great

zero88 · February 23rd, 2006, 09:19 PM

Mike Portnoy from Dream Theater is my favorite drummer of all time.

Brad Riffs · February 23rd, 2006, 09:24 PM

Flo Mournier is amazing.

I like his style, too. There's Husvik (Extol, Twisted into Form, Absurd2) as well as Hoglan (SYL, ex-Death).

The song was good and i liked the drum sounds but his timing wasn't very good. Great ideas and fill though. The riffs we're also really cool. I would buy their record if they had a good singer too.
